Interaction with environment

Interaction with Environment It senses the (often complex and dynamic) environment through its sensors and reacts accordingly. 

Advantages of small metal nanoparticles are (i) short range ordering, (ii) enhanced interaction with environments due to the high number of dangling bonds, (iii) great variety of the valence band electron structure, and (iv) self-structuring for optimum performance in chemisorption and catalysis.

The keys of toxicology are based on all the above-mentioned domains that try to focus on understanding how the toxic chemicals interacts with environment, and what should we do in order to protect harmful effects. For... 

The metal can enter into interactions with environment components and form compounds that are stable to corrosion during anodic dissolution. Passivity is the thermodynamic state of reaction in metals at which their corrosion retards abruptly. The transfer of a metal into the passive state is called passivation, and the layer formed on the metal electrode surface is called the passivating layer. Oxide and salt passivation of metals are distinguished by the composition of passivating layers. 

We should acknowledge that there are two basic possibilities of variations of constants. One is a result of certain violation of LPl, while the other is an observational effect of the interaction with environment, such as the bath of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation of photons, neutrinos, gravitons. Dark Matter (DM), matter, etc.

On the other hand, in the water, we observe a clearer critical strength point of 1.7 nm HAP than that of 1.7 nm HAP in the vacuum. This means the mechanical properties are affected by the interactions between HAP and the environments. Thin HAP (under 2 nm) shows more ductility and fluidity because of the relatively disordered structure. Although the structure is more amorphous and the structural deformation occurs across the entire system during the tensile deformation with the thin HAP, the deformation and failure of HAP become more localized as the thickness of HAP increases. Because of the thinness of the minerals, the interactions with environments such as proteins and water can disturb or stabilize the HAP structure, making the minerals lose or gain their bulk properties.

Because the metal dissolution is an anodic process, for example, Fe(s) Fe +(aq) + 2e , the current of the process is assumed to be positive. When potential increases from Mez+zMe lo f (passivation or Flade potential), the current is increasing exponentially due to the electron transfer reaction, for example, Fe(s) -> Fe +(aq) + 2e", and can be described using Tafel s equation. At a E the formation of an oxide layer (passive film) starts. When the metal surface is covered by a metal oxide passive film (an insulator or a semiconductor), the resistivity is sharply increasing, and the current density drops down to the rest current density, 7r. This low current corresponds to a slow growth of the oxide layer, and possible dissolution of the metal oxide into solution. In the region of transpassivation, another electrochemical reaction can take place, for example, H20(l) (l/2)02(g) + 2H+(aq) + 2e, or the passive film can be broken down due to a chemical interaction with environment and mechanical instability. Clearly, a three-electrode cell and a potentiostat should be used to obtain the current density-potential curve shown in Figure 9.3.
